Hardback. Condición: Very Good. Four years after the end of the American Revolution, the new nation needed cash and a surge in trade to survive. So a group of merchants and ship owners decided to send two ships to the Pacific Ocean, via Cape Horn. The goals of the expedition were to establish new trade with China, settle an outpost on territory claimed by the Spanish, and locate the legendary Northwest Passage. Scott Ridley recounts the story of this landmark voyage in Morning of Fire. The man chosen to lead the expedition was John Kendrick, who would face not only the hazards of sea travel, but also a subordinate officer who wanted his command, Spanish officials who wanted him captured, and a rival British captain who wanted him dead.

He has four sons and lives with his family in East Harwich, Massachusetts. A tale of maritime adventure, intrigue and high-stakes diplomacy. . . . Solid. . . . Important. -- Kirkus Reviews.…

Paperback. Condición: Good. The official illustrated companion book to the winner of five Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Actor (Russell Crowe), Costume Design, Sound, and Visual Effects. Director Ridley Scott (Blade Runner, Thelma and Louise, Alien) brings the glorious battles of the ancient Roman arena back to the big screen. Set against the splendor and barbarity of the Roman Empire in AD 180, Gladiator tells an epic story of courage and revenge: The great Roman general Maximus (Russell Crowe) has been forced into exile and slavery by the jealous heir to the throne, Commodus (Joaquin Phoenix). Trained as a gladiator, Maximus returns to Rome, intent on avenging the murder of his family by Commodus, now emperor. The one power stronger than that of the emperor is the will of the people, and Maximus knows he can attain his revenge only by becoming the greatest hero in all the Empire. Russell Crowe heads up an international cast that includes Joaquin Phoenix, Connie Nielson, Oliver Reed, Derek Jacobi, Djimon Hounsou, and Richard Harris. Directed by Ridley Scott from a script by David Franzoni and John Logan, Gladiator is produced by Franzoni, Douglas Wick, and Branko Lustig, with Walter F. Parkes serving as executive producer. This is the official full-color companion book, featuring excerpts from the screenplay, historical sidebars and illustrations, details on period costumes and epic set designs, behind-the-scenes photographs from the location filming, and interviews with the screenwriters, actors, and director.…
